Biden's Loyalty Requirements Derail Harris' Presidential Campaign Against Trump

President Biden's strict adherence to maintaining alignment between his policies and Harris's campaign approach contributed to her loss against Trump in the 2024 election. Biden's loyalists and limitations hindered Harris from shaping her own narrative upon assuming the Democratic ticket in July. Harris's failure to distinguish herself from Biden's less popular policies regarding inflation and border security enabled Trump to present himself as the candidate for change. This outcome carries substantial implications for Democratic Party leadership and upcoming campaigns.
